Belhadj reveals Redknapp appeal

Portsmouth defender Nadir Belhadj says he would be interested in a move to Tottenham Hotspur, should former Pompey boss Harry Redknapp come calling. The 27-year-old Algerian international was signed by Redknapp on loan from Lens last summer, with the full-back making 16 league appearances, scoring twice, before making the move permanent in January. The Fratton Park outfit have witnessed an exodus of their star talent since Redknapp's departure to White Hart Lane last October, with front-pairing Jermain Defoe and Peter Crouch linking up with their former boss in North London, while right-back Glen Johnson has joined Liverpool. And Belhadj has now done little to assure Pompey fans of his commitment to the south-coast club's cause, after admitting he would be interested in working with Redknapp again. "All I know is that Redknapp was behind me coming to Portsmouth and that he has confidence in my qualities," he told The Portsmouth News. "I couldn't refuse an offer from Tottenham, especially if it's coming from Redknapp." PORTSMOUTH FANS!
